With all this air time she's getting on Stranger Things, I hope Kate Bush can finally buy a castle as big as Enya's.

At the risk of initiating #discourse, do you serve your Christmas cake with cheese or are you boring?

Ep6 The Cottage was gorgeous and I would burn the world for Shane and Ilya. HOWEVER I can't say I’m not still struggling with resentment for my years wasted to self-loathing and loneliness. I didn’t get a fraction of their lot until my mid-30s. I don’t think I’ll ever forgive the universe for that.

There was a tradition of Christmas selfies in childhood homes where you’d discover how secretly posh somebody was. Cottage in Esher. Cocker spaniels. Aga. Parents still married. Not seeing many this year. Have they learned shame, or did I just unfollow them?

2026 might be the year I finally work out how to grow a moustache without the hairs sticking out perpendicular to my top lip.

The merriest of Christmases to the muslim-run food shop that I am about to visit (it's open!) to buy butter so that Ante can bake the bangin' mince pies we forgot about.

There's a piano on the ceiling.

On the dawn of realisation that I might miss living in the middle of London a little more than I thought.
Ooh good question. The north end of Waterloo Bridge where you can see the whole vista from the City to Westminster. Turning the corner into Old Compton Street because then it's safe to hold my husband's hand. Victoria Park because I spent so much of the pandemic in it willing my sanity to remain.

@blakethebutcher.bsky.social Butchered the fuck out of this big chicken. Thought of you.

Ante is shallow-frying chestnuts on an induction hob, but that doesn't really scan.

Honestly though, what the fuck is this Labour government for? They fail at every single test. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

In 2025 I also qualified as a PT, and got my website up and running. I had a good run of clients initially; half a dozen really awesome guys. They've since gone off to do their own things (which is great!) and I have neglected to replace them. Maybe that's a thing for next year, too.

in 2025 I built a message board, inspired by Thingbox and PopJustice and other queer-adjacent popular culture forums, and intended as an old-school alternative to the global socials. Not many people visited at all, but it's still there. I'll leave it up for posterity.

I'm so very close to reaching the bottom of this vile powder. It's so close, and I'm excited where my protein journey will take me next. Hopefully somewhere that doesn't taste how stale piss smells.

It's been two weeks and I am so upset at how truly revolting this vegan protein powder is. I am not a fussy eater but it is desgosten. How do you live? But it was £60, so bottoms up I guess.

Finally eliminated all dairy from my diet and it's astonishing and depressing just how much better I feel. I'll miss u, cheese.

The ultimate switch was from whey to pea protein shakes. Nobody drinks protein for flavour, but it's going to take some getting used to the taste of hairspray post-workout

I can feel a Christmas cold coming on. So I did some OHPs.

When Donald is finally dead, will there be an immediate movement to scrub his name from every building, institution, fucking battleship that has the word 'Trump' written on it in cheap gold lettering?

Heated Rivalry ep5. I've never cried at the end of a hockey game before now.

I'm going to ask Ante to tell me what's on his mind, but to tell me in Croatian so I don't understand. I can nod attentively.

Gonna be a Dry January wanker next year. I don't care. Dry February, fuck it.
